Source of Discharge, if known:
A Heating Coil on the Unit 1 Fuel Handling Building supply fan ruptured at approximately 11:00 a.m. on December 15, 2010 and caused the spill of heating water to areas outside the Fuel Handling Building Annex. The water entered Catch Basin #30 which ultimately flows into Manhole #13 (the last manhole in the system prior to the River) and to the Delaware River via DSN 488.
Since the water which spilled from the heating coil is untreated, no chemicals were anticipated.
Precautionary sampling for ammonia was initiated shortly after the Heating Coil failed.
The initial sample indicated lppm of ammonia.
A second sample was taken to confirm this result due. to theý very low levels detected, which occurred at approximately 1:20 p.m. At that time the spill had been terminated, and PSEG initiated sampling of the storm drain system (see below) to determine the extent of the spill. Subsequently, Catch Basin #31 was plugged to prevent any water with 4
Bureau of Discharge Prevention - Discharge Confirmation Report LR-E11-0001 trace amounts of ammonia from entering the Delaware River, and to facilitate the Clean Harbors clean-up of the storm drain system.
It is believed the potential source of ammonia was ice melt, a deicer which is used site-wide during winter months to protect personnel from; slippery and. unsafe conditions.
The deicers contain or consist of urea, and the urea converts to ammonia.
The CHEMets used to sample for ammonia have +/-0.5 ppm accuracy in the low level range application.
It is believed that there is a potential, but unverifiable samrplingperror-duejtot he-accuracy-o~fthe-ch emicaLanalysisJrom-the-CHEMets-test kits (this is not a certified method of analysis -
they are.,typically used for immediate analysis and informational purposes).
In pure water systems, the ammonia can be misidentified due to the colors/constituents of the sample stream, which may have been the case when used to sample catch basin contents.
